Cystinosis, a rare lysosomal storage disease, is characterized by cystine crystallization and accumulation within tissues and organs, including the kidneys and brain. Its impact on neural function appears mild relative to its effects on other organs, but

The Pitfall of White Blood Cell Cystine Measurement to Diagnose Juvenile Cystinosis
Cystinosis is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease, caused by mutations in the CTNS gene, resulting in multi-organ cystine accumulation. Three forms of cystinosis are distinguished: infantile and juvenile nephropathic cystinosis affecting ...

Fibrosing Colonopathy Presenting in a Patient with Cystinosis
Fibrosing colonopathy is a unique pathology characterized by long segment stricture, usually of the ileocecal region. Historically, it is most commonly described in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF).

Expert guidance on the multidisciplinary management of cystinosis in adolescent and adult patients
Cystinosis, a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder, results in an abnormal accumulation of the amino acid cystine in multiple organs and tissues of the body.

Infantile nephropathic cystinosis (INC) is an inheritable lysosomal storage disorder characterized by lysosomal cystine accumulation, progressive kidney disease, and multiple extrarenal complications (ERCs).

Cysteamine is currently the only therapy for nephropathic cystinosis. It significantly improves life expectancy and delays progression to end-stage kidney disease; however, it cannot prevent it.

Background: Cystinosis is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease with high morbidity and mortality. It is caused by mutations in the CTNS gene that encodes the cystine transporter, cystinosin, which leads to lysosomal cystine accumulation ...

Muscle and Bone Impairment in Infantile Nephropathic Cystinosis: New Concepts
Cystinosis Metabolic Bone Disease (CMBD) has emerged during the last decade as a well-recognized, long-term complication in patients suffering from infantile nephropathic cystinosis (INC), resulting in significant morbidity and impaired quality of life ...

Cystinosis, a rare autosomal recessive disease caused by intracellular cystine accumulation, occurs in an estimated 1/100,000–200,000 live births. Ocular non-nephropathic cystinosis is typically diagnosed during adulthood, when patients present with ...

Background Cystinosis is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease, associated with high morbidity and mortality. Mutations in the CTNS gene disable a membrane protein responsible for the transport of cystine out of the lysosome.
